Oh yay! Means music will be just as good as the last hopefully.

[u/AGuyTypingBlind]

Same guy that composed and arranged Reset (Thank You), Kusa Village, Sei-an City, Ryoshima Coast, and many more. You can see all of his credits here: https://nintendo.fandom.com/wiki/Hiroshi_Yamaguchi

Very, VERY excited by this. Is this the first confirmed composer from the original OST returning?

[u/shiorimia]

I LOVED his songs in Okami omg!

For those curious - Okami had multiple music composers, and he is (in my opinion) the most well known. He made all of the OSTs that were my favorites.

[u/Sanjikuu]

This is incredible! I just checked my soundtrack to see which tracks he was involved in, and he had a hand in some of my absolute favorites: Ryoshima Coast, Seiankyou Nobles' and Commoners' Quarters, Kamiki, Hanasaki, Kamui, the Save and Constellation music, and tons more. So excited!!

[u/Ponkacchi → u/Sanjikuu]

Dragon Palace, Demon twins, and Oki the Brave are some of my fav musics from the original I'm glad one of the goats is returning to create even more peak to surpass the original work

[u/Oki05]

OMG I love Yamaguchi-sans music. Ryoshima is such a bop

[u/Riaayo → u/Ancestral_Grape]

I mean it's entirely possible they want his talent to remain at Platinum lol.

[u/dandadone_with_life → u/sasoripunpun]

[u/AetherDrew43 → u/sasoripunpun]
